The End of Capitalism?: Part 2B.
Social Limits And The Crisis
By Alex Knight

http://www.countercurrents.org/knight290710.htm

Considering the ecological limits and social limits to growth side-by-side, the only conclusion I can make is that the end of capitalism is not only a possibility, but an inevitability. Neither the planet nor the world's population appear able to support this system much longer, and something's got to give. It may be years or even a couple decades before we can look back and say for sure that a paradigm shift has occurred and that we are living in a different, non-capitalist era

The Failure Of The Western Way Of War
By Andrew J. Bacevich

http://www.countercurrents.org/bacevich290710.htm

Nearly 20 years ago, a querulous Madeleine Albright demanded to know: "What's the point of having this superb military you're always talking about if we can't use it?" Today, an altogether different question deserves our attention: What's the point of constantly using our superb military if doing so doesn't actually work? Washington's refusal to pose that question provides a measure of the corruption and dishonesty permeating our politics


Beware Rich Political Saviors
By Joel S. Hirschhorn

http://www.countercurrents.org/joel290710.htm

Reformers, populist outsiders, tea party candidates, surprise primary winners and others expecting to oust incumbents in the coming mid-term elections for members of Congress and state governors and other officials mostly suck. Why? They are nutty, ignorant, dishonest or racist

By Stephen Lendman

http://www.countercurrents.org/lendman290710.htm

America, Britain and other nations do self-examine, as shamelessly as the above account using coverup to suppress the truth and avoid accountability. And when abuses are too great to hide, one or more low-level soldiers are charged to absolve chain of command crimes, including high-level civilians, how Israel, America and other nations duck responsibility for lawless acts of violence, ones carefully planned in advance

This is the only response that America knows

Kashmir: A Month Of Melancholy
By Naveed Qazi

http://www.countercurrents.org/qazi290710.htm

About nineteen natives have been killed since the past month. It included young children and youth. It also included women and men, who were the lynchpins of their family. For us, life would move on, but for their sorrowing families, the struggle has just started. Kashmiri mornings are full of causerie, but think about their mornings, will they be peaceful? It would start with a suffocating silence which wouldn't end till the night. Pain. Misery. Melancholy. Suffering ; would be ruling their minds and hearts, and it won't cleanse away easily
